What better way to celebrate the holiday season than with the joy of reading?
 
Our customisable book advent calendar includes 6 - 12 of the best paperback books from 2026. Each item is gift-wrapped, numbered and packed in a reusable gift box, making it a perfect winter treat to yourself or a loved one! 
 
✨ New this year, by popular demand, is the 'Mini Box'! This bite-sized, unnumbered version of our calendar (which, admittedly, isn't really a calendar at all) features 3 books and 2 sweet treats, and 1 bookish item ✨
 
We expect to ship all Advent Calendars in mid- to late November. Pre-orders for calendars will close on 31st October.
